Flames that 
Wipe out Cities 




The United States leads 
the world in annual amount 
of fire loss and loss per 
capita. 

Due to carelessness and 
flimsy building construc- 
tion, entire cities have been 
wiped out by flames. 

Public indifference and 
lax fire inspection costs this 
country hundreds of mil- 
lions annually.

Salem, Mass. — Burned June 25, 1914; 
one-third of city laid waste; fire loss almost 
$14,000,000. 



Baltimore, Md. — Burned Feb. 7, 1904 
fire lasted 30 hours; heart of the business dis 
trict was destroyed; fire loss $40,000,000.

The Man 
Next Door 



"Fire-proof" buildings 
may not burn, but their 
contents will. Though 
built of incombustible ma- 
terials flames from adjoining 
buildings may yet invade 
them. 

You and your employes 
may be ever so careful, 
but you cannot control the 
actions of The Man Next 
Door. 



Union Savings and Trust Building, 
Cincinnati, Ohio — Burned December 10, 
1912. Flames from the burning Gibson 
Hotel next door melted window glass and 
gutted twenty-two offices. 




Chronicle Building, Augusta, Ga. — 
Burned March 22, 1916; gutted by fire 
next door. The two SAFE-CABINETS 
saved their contents. 




Mayo Building, Tulsa, 
Oklahoma — Burned Oct. 
23, 1917; modern "fire- 
proof" construction ■ 
Flames from the adjoin- 
ing Ohio Building melted 
wire window glass and 
destroyed offices on 
three floors.

Where records are small in volume 
but great in value. 



General offices of N. Snellenberg Department Store, 
Philadelphia. SAFE-CABINETS are placed under 
the desk of each clerk. 

Records Worth Making Are Worth Protecting 

Your records represent an investment of time, labor and 
money. The brains of high-priced executives designed them 
and the system of which they are so vital a part. A force of 
clerks compile, check, summarize and file your records. 

It is estimated that fully $50,000,000 are spent annually 
for office appliances such as typewriters, adding machines, 
letter duplicators and filing devices in the United States. 
The sum is justified by the value of the records. 

Accurate knowledge of past and present transactions form 
the basis of judging the future, and records constitute history 
of those transactions. 

On that dread day when fire comes, the possession of vital 
records is often the deciding factor that deter- 
mines whether the business shall continue in 
temporary quarters or shall be crippled while 
insurance adjustment is taking place. 

Not Less Vital in Small Offices 

Relatively, the loss of records' by fire is 
more serious for the small concern than for 
the large. The value of almost any one record 
to a business is more than sufficient to pay for 
safe-cabinets to protect all its other records.

T/je temperature curve used in the National 
Standard Fire Test 



The National Standard Fire Test has been 
adopted by the Underwriters' Laboratories, 
Inc., as a uniform method of determining 
resistance to heat offered by products that 
are submitted to them for testing. 

WHAT THIS CURVE MEANS— Beginning at zero the 
temperature applied to the article tested is graduated 
according to the following tables : 

1,000° Fat 6 minutes 
1,300° F at 10 minutes 
1,500° F at 30 minutes 
1,700° F at 1 hour 
1,850° F at 2 hours 
2,000° F at 4 hours 

That is to say, at the end of six minutes 
the temperature has gradually risen at a uni- 
form rate to 1,000 °. At the end of 10 minutes 
it is 1,300°. By the time 4 hours has elapsed 
a temperature of 2,000 ° has been attained, etc. 

The safe-cabinet company received 
recognition by the Underwriters' Laboratories 
and was granted their Insulated Cabinet 
Label in 1912. In 1915 it was granted the 
Light-Weight Safe Label. 

In 1918 the safe-cabinet was awarded the 
Class "A" and Class "B" Inspected Safe Labels, 
signifying 4-hour and 2-hour protection against 
severe and continuous heat respectively.

Laboratory Testing Furnace. Lined with 
fire brick to withstand the terrific tem- 
peratures developed in fire tests. 




Thermo couples (electrical thermometers) 
placed inside and outside of safe to be tested 
to register inner and outer temperatures. 




A Furnace Laboratory Test 

How much heat will a safe stand? Will it go 
through a severe fire of long duration? Will it 
stand a drop of several stories? 

To determine how much heat a safe will 
resist, it must be tested in fire of known inten- 
sity and duration. 

The test of actual fire is good as far as it 
goes, but it is not scientific. It is only by tests 
made in a laboratory furnace, under labora- 
tory conditions, that definite figures can be 
obtained. 

These pictures show a laboratory furnace, 
the safe-cabinet surrounded with gas burners, 
with electrical thermometers placed inside 
and outside, and a removable wall built about 
it to confine the flames to all sides. 

The safe-cabinet, Class "A," has been 
heated for over four hours in this furnace. At 
the end of that time it is white hot, the bricks 
surrounding it are translucent from the terrific 
heat and the walls of the furnace itself are 
glowing red. 

The safe-cabinet, Class "B," has stood a 
similar test for more than two hours. 

These conditions are far more severe than 
those existing in an ordinary fire, yet at the 
end of hundreds of such tests, the safe- 
cabinet has fully protected its contents. 



The safe is surrounded with a removeable 
wall of brick to confine the flames from 
the gas burners in the floor to all sides 
of the safe.

A Duplication of Actual 
Fire Conditions 

What happens to a safe when it gets heated red- 
hot, crashes to the basement of a burning building 
and is covered with tons of debris? 

Will it protect its contents through such an ordeal? 

If fire should again reach it after it has fallen, 
would it still protect the records inside? 

The safe-cabinet has been tested for these con- 
ditions in the laboratory furnace of The Under- 
writers' Laboratories, Inc., as well as in our own. 

These pictures show the safe-cabinet placed in 
the testing furnace where it is heated red-hot. 

It is then taken to the precipitation tower and 
immediately hurled to a solid concrete base thirty 
feet below. 

A ton of debris is then thrown on it to duplicate 
the effect of falling walls. 

Immediately taken to the testing furnace again, 
it is again subjected to intense heat. 

Even after this teriffic heat-run and impact test, 
the contents are found to be fully protected.

The Day of the Fire— YOUR Fire! 

"The day of the fire" is a milestone in the life of the business man whose busi- 
ness has been wiped out by flames. For him events are referred to as happen- 
ing "before the fire" and "after the fire." 

Record protection is bought for one day— "The Day of the Fire." A safe 
that protects your records at that critical time is cheap no matter how much 
you paid for it. The safe that fails to protect on "The Day of the Fire," may 
prove ruinous in cost even though given you for nothing. 

Here was a going concern that was building up profits— the culmination 
of years of planning, sacrifice and effort. 

Fire came. Production was stopped. All valuable papers were destroyed. 

With all records gone, the business crippled, a fresh start had to be made. 
Because the records had been burned up, the insurance companies were unable, 
though willing, to make insurance settlement. This meant delay at the very 
time when prompt action was needed.

Record Protection That 
Often Fails to Protect 

Wooden Files — Wooden files may give you 
filing efficiency and convenient access to your 
records, but they won't give you protection against 
fire, water and theft. Made of combustible 
material, they are easily set on fire. Smoke and 
water, too, find easy entrance to them. 

Steel Files — Steel conducts heat instead of 
protecting against it. Actual flames may be kept 
out but records in steel files are often ignited by 
contact with the glowing metal. They generally 
offer less resistance to heat than wooden files. 

Vaults — A vault is no better than its door. 
If this is nothing more than an uninsulated iron 
shutter, heat will quickly buckle it and allow 
flames to enter. 

And fires frequently originate in 
vaults. Inflammable records, wooden 
shelving, accumulated dust, furnish 
the fuel; a spark from defective 
wiring or a cigarette stub furnish 
the cause. 

Iron Safes — Heavy iron safes 
are made today on the same plan 
of construction that was used years 
ago. A safe should be judged by 
its heat resistance as determined 
by laboratory tests. 

Caution demands that you should 
provide known, scientifically-prov- 
en protection for your valuable 
records. 

Do not make the mistake of think- 
ing that your records are protected 
simply because they are housed and 
filed. 

Buy your record protection 
by test not by guess.

SAFE -CABINETS 

That Protected Their 

Contents Through 

Fire 

These safe-cabinets went 
through the test of actual fire 
and fulfilled the trust placed 
in them. All the fires were 
severe ones but the contents 
of every safe-cabinet were 
fully protected. 

How positive are you that 
the container in which your 
records are kept would per- 
form equally well? 

That ponderous, iron safe 
or that vault or that filing 
device — have you ever made 
any attempt to satisfy your- 
self just how long they would 
resist the intense heat of a 
fire? 

Is anyone sponsor for the 
protection they should give 
you? 

Think this over. 

Record protection is bought 
for one day — the day when 
fire comes. For that day the 
best protection is none too 
good and is the cheapest you 
can buy. 

Keep your priceless records 
in a safe that offers known, 
proven resistance to heat. 
The safe-cabinet will give 
you such protection.

These SAFE-CABINETS Fell 
Several Stories 

The safe-cabinets on this page 
crashed to the basement when 
the floors on which they were 
located were eaten by flames. 

Buried under tons of burning 
debris, they could not be reached 
for days, but in every case they 
fully protected their records. 

The first picture is the safe- 
cabinet of Suppes, Abicht & 
Suppes, located on the third 
floor of the Ohio Building at 
Tulsa, Okla. In the disastrous 
fire of October, 1917, this safe- 
cabinet crashed to the basement 
and remained there for two days 
before it could be opened. 

The safe-cabinet lying in 
the ice-covered ruins was owned 
by The Fantle Bros.-Danforth 
Company, Sioux Falls, South 
Dakota. It dropped from the 
balcony of the second floor to the 
basement. 

"No use opening it. Your 
records are burned up," said the 
skeptics. 

This safe protected invoices 
and inventories — vital records 
in insurance settlement. 

The last picture is the safe- 
cabinet of Mr. Percy Collins 
also in the Ohio Building fire. 
It fell from the second floor to 
the basement and remained 
buried for two days.

Vaults 

The protection which a vault 
will give is not definitely 
known because none of those 
who built it will stand sponsor 
for the completed job. The 
manufacturer of the door will 
not vouch for the work of the 
mason. 

A vault has hazards of 
interior fire, due to swinging 
lamp cords, accumulated rub- 
bish, wooden shelving and 
smoking. 

It is as immovable as a 
cave and anchors an office to 
one spot. 

Private papers kept in it 
are frequently seen by prying 
eyes. 

Vaults waste valuable space 
because of their thick walls and 
needed inside for trucks. 

Vaults have a right place and a wrong place. 
They should be in the basement where floor space 
is inexpensive, where they are subjected to the 
least danger of destruction by fire and where old, 
non-current records can be stored.

Iron Safes 

These pictures tell the story 
of the old-fashioned, heavy 
iron safe. 

Tremendous in weight, it is 
a serious strain on floors. 
To move it requires planks, 
tackle and the aid of profes- 
sional safe movers. The labor, 
time, expense and danger in- 
volved, make it a job that is 
often deferred and always 
dreaded. 

Immensely thick walls re- 
duce the interior filing capacity 
to a space too small to be 
equipped with anything but 
a few immovable wooden 
partitions and shelves. 

Weight alone won't save 
your records on "The Day 
of the Fire," but heat resist- 
ance will. 



It took seven men 
two days to move 
these two safes two 
blocks. Think of the 
cost and time re- 
quired.

Steel Files 

Steel files may not burn, but their 
contents will. 

Laboratory furnace tests show 
that the average steel file will offer 
resistance to the heat of The Under- 
writers' National Standard Fire 
Test, for five minutes, an average 
temperature of 500 degrees. 

Steel is an excellent conductor of 
heat and soon becomes 
glowing hot in a fire. 

Wooden files, while 
better non-conductors 
of heat, protect 
records only about one 
minute longer in a lab- 
oratory furnace test. 

Water and smoke 
find easy entrance to 
the numerous open- 
ings in steel and wood- 
en files, and records 
blackened by soot or 
converted into pulp 
by water might as well 
be destroyed by fire. 

Yet many of the 
priceless records of 
business are kept in 
steel and wooden files.

What Insures Your Insurance? 







^ Uninsurable 
y and Excepted 
10 property 

U scripts, mechanical drawings, dies or patterns. 




Have you 
ever read these 
lines in your fire 
insurance policy ? 

Could you fulfill your 
part of the contract the 
day after the fire? 



The most that fire insurance can do is to pay a 
fixed sum of money for proven loss sustained. 

It cannot preserve or protect records and it can- 
not give them back to you on the day after the fire. 

Insurance companies want to do their part — 

they are anxious to make prompt and adequate 

settlement. But if the records needed to prove 

loss are destroyed, they cannot do it. This 

means delay at the very time you want action. 

"Insured loss is paid on the basis of the 
value of the property on hand on the day 
of the fire." 
Field Book of Insurance Instruction. 

The safe-cabinet insures your 
insurance — preserves for you the rec- 
ords you need after a fire. 
With these records you can 
at once get the funds required 
for a resumption of opera- 
tions. Without them you 
must wait for the appraisors' 
report on the amount of the 
loss you suffered. 

Failure to safe-guard your invoices, 
inventories, books of account and vouch- 
ers may cost you a sum that would have 
provided safe-cabinet protection for 
all your records, many times over. 




This policy shall not cover accounts, bills, 
currency, deeds, evidences of debt, money, 
notes or securities; nor, unless specifically 
named hereon in writing, bullion, manu- 



al Requirements 
in case of loss. 



Make a complete inventory of the damaged 
and undamaged property, stating the 

132 '" v< lv,so ' quantity and cost of each article and the 

133 amount claimed thereon; and, the insured shall, within 

134 sixty days after the fire, unless such time is extended 

135 in writing by this Company, render to this Company a 

136 proof of loss. 



154 shall produce for examination all books of account, bills, 

155 invoices, and other vouchers, or certified copies thereof, if 

156 originals be lost, at such reasonable time and place as may 

157 be designated by this Company or its representative. 



Your records of today 
guarantee your business 
of tomorrow. 



Where do you keep your "books of account, bills, invoices and other 
vouchers?"

Would tomorrow and the

with remorse by the loss of 
treasures that nothing can 
replace? 

Photographs, heirlooms

mementos — could you state 
their value to you in dollars and cents? 

If fire suddenly came tonight, where would it find your silverware, jewels, 
rare collections, your inventory of household goods and such private papers as 
you keep at home? 

How about the days, weeks or months that your house is shut up and empty 
while you are out of town? Suppose fire should visit it then?

where it will be instantly accessible and convenient to use.

Protect Your Wooden 

and Steel Files in 

THE SAFE-CABINET 

Files of wood and steel 
have a right and wrong 
use. They are well 
adapted to the efficient 
filing of records but they 
should not be depended 
upon to give protection. 

The safe-cabinet, 
Nos. 14, 83 and 84, will 
protect the filing devices 
of other manufacturers. 
Continue to use the filing 
devices you have already 
bought, but protect them 
and their contents by plac- 
ing them in "The World's 
Safest Safe." 



THE SAFE-CABINETS 
Nos. 83 and 8U that will give 
protection to wooden or steel 
files. Only THE SAFE-

single stack of vertical equip- 
ment.

SAFE-CABINETS That Protect Wooden or Steel Files 




Projection 
of hardware 



Length over all 



To enable us to furnish safe- 
cabinets that will properly ac- 
commodate steel or wooden files, 
we must have the dimensions of 
each section as indicated on this 
illustration. 

Give the actual depth of the sec- 
tion itself, the depth of the pro- 
jecting hardware and the depth 
over all. 

The safe-cabinet will ac- 
commodate files of more than one 
depth. For example vertical 
letter files of, say, 24 inches 
depth on top of which are files, 
say, 18 inches deep can be placed 
in a safe-cabinet No. 84 that 
will take the 24 inch vertical 
letter files. 

The height of the entire stack 
of files must be taken into con- 
sideration, of course. Any space 
that remains in the safe-cabi- 
net after the files have been 
installed can be utilized for 
plain or roller shelves. 
As safe-cabinets Nos. 14, 83 and 84 are made in odd width 
and are designed to accommodate the filing devices of other manufac- 
turers, safe-cabinet equipment, other than plain or roller shelves 
must be specially built. 
Safe-cabinets Nos. 14, 83 or 84 are delivered empty and the files installed when 
the safe-cabinet is in place.

THE SAFE-CABINET— THE WORLD S SAFEST SAFE

TELEPHONE JOHN 838 



Burglary Insurance Underwriters Association 

8O MAIDENf LANE BUILDING. NEW YORK CITY 

ROOMS 1830-1036-1637 

II 
SAMUEL B. BREWSTER, SECRETARY 

New York, Nov. 10, 1916. 191 



Mr, W. V. Dick, President, 

Safe*-Cabinet Company, 

Marietta, Ohio. 

Dear Sir:- 

I am pleased to advise you that at a meeting 

of the Association held on the second instant, a Resolution as 

follows was adopted, to become effective January 1st, 1917 :• 

"The Mercantile Open Stock Committee submitted a 
report in reference to the application of the Safe Cabinet 
Company of Marietta, Ohio, that their "S-Cientest" model safe 
Cabinet be accorded the Fire-proof rating. 

UPON MOTION, duly seconded: 

IT WAS RESOLVED, that Safe Cabinets bearing 
the label of the "Underwriters' laboratories, Inc. Inspected 
light Weight Safe" be given the Fire-proof rating, and that all 
other Safe Cabinets take the rate which now obtains and appearing 
in the Manual on Page M-S-2." 

In response to the request contained in your 
communication of recent date, I am enclosing herewith negatives 
of photographs taken by me in Marietta, and which negatives I 
trust you will return at your convenience. 

With kind regards, I am 

Yours very truly, 




SBB/S Secretary. 



34 THE SAFE-CABINET "THE WORLD'S SAFEST SAFE" 

Interior Equipment for THE SAFE-CABINET 

The safe-cabinet can be equipped with filing devices, such as drawers, lockers 
and shelves, for any form or size of business record. 

Every piece of interior equipment has projecting flanges on the ends and 
back which engage in slots on the inner sides and back of the safe-cabinet. 
These slots are cut at half-inch intervals, permitting any section to be raised or 
lowered to suit efficiency and convenience of arrangement. 

Any drawer can be equipped with locks — paracentric or flat key. This 
guards against inspection of private papers while the safe is open and in use. 
Unless specially ordered, every lock will pass a different key. Master keys can 
be provided, however, which will open all the locks in the safe even though 
each lock is provided with a different key. 

Vertical partitions (see page 41) are suspended from the under side of plain 
shelves. They can be shifted from side to side or entirely removed. Vertical 
partitions more than 12 inches high are specially built and fastened at the bot- 
tom as well as at the top. Such partitions cannot be shifted or removed. 

To economize vertical height, several sections can be built into one, thus 
eliminating the half-inch facing between the sections and saving that much 
space. No extra charge is made for combining sections of interior equipment, 
providing they are standard in every other way. 

Special size drawers, lockers, etc., or special combinations of different 
sections will be built to order. An extra charge is made to cover the special 
material and extra labor required. 

For very large and heavy books, reinforced plain shelves or roller shelves 
are recommended. For safe-cabinets already equipped with ordinary 
plain shelves a reinforcing bar can be used. This bar fits snugly on the under 
side of the shelf, is not visible when in place and gives great rigidity to an 
ordinary shelf. 

Sections of filing equipment can be ordered with some of the units left out. 
For example: If but two 5x3 card drawers are required in a safe 30 inches 
wide, it is not necessary to order the entire section shown at the top of the 
opposite page. It can be obtained with but two drawers and the remainder of 
the space left open. Such sections require special construction. 

To estimate the capacity of any drawer, figure that about 200 unfolded 
letters can be filed to the lineal inch, including the average number of guides 
and folders. For estimating the number of cards that can be put in card 
drawers, figure 60 heavy weight, 80 medium weight and 100 light weight cards 
to the lineal inch of depth, including the average number of guide cards. 

Allow for the future growth of your business records. Buy sufficient in- 
terior equipment to not only accommodate your present records but additional 
records which you will unquestionably have during the next five years. 

If only plain shelves are ordered for the safe-cabinet be sure to 
get enough of them. It is better to have a dozen shelves well filled than half 
a dozen with a large amount of unoccupied space above the records.

"Articles of quality must bear a price in proportion to the skill, 
time and risk attending their invention and manufacture. 

"Quality is not produced by chance. 

"The best material and workmanship naturally increases the first 
cost — cheapness, and its attending results, may be the destroying sub- 
marine menacing the efficiency and success of your business. 

"The successful manager, auditor and buyer is he who learns the 
difference between price and value, looking on cheapness with suspicion 
and selecting his business equipment with the same care and thought as 
he gives to the picking of his assistants."
